This 1969 Pontiac GTO Convertible is a factory example that's been under the care of its current owner for approximately 30 years and the subject of a frame-off restoration completed in 2006. Since completion, the car has seen limited use and is accompanied by build photos and a substantial file of restoration receipts that document its refurbishment and long-term ownership history.
Finished in correct Midnight Green, the car presents with a clean, well-executed appearance that balances factory styling with select enhancements. The body is complemented by a white convertible top, added GTO striping, and traditional GTO badging. A rear spoiler adds a subtle performance accent, while 15" Pontiac Rally wheels wrapped in BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires provide a period-appropriate stance. Overall, the exterior reflects careful restoration work with attention to both authenticity and visual impact.
Power comes from a Chevrolet Performance ZZ502 crate V8 rated at 502 horsepower, painted Pontiac Blue to maintain a cohesive underhood appearance. The engine is equipped with FiTech electronic fuel injection and breathes through long tube headers feeding a fully custom welded 3" stainless steel exhaust system. A Bowler Performance-built 4L80E 4-speed automatic transmission delivers power to a Moser 12-bolt rear axle with 3.73 gears and a limited-slip differential. The car is further equipped with power steering and power brakes with front discs, rounding out a drivetrain and chassis setup designed for reliable, modernized performance.
According to the cowl tag, the car was originally equipped with a black interior, but it now features a Parchment interior with bucket seats and a rear bench. The cabin is accented by a black dash and black carpet, creating a contrasting, period-inspired look. Additional features include a center console, 3-spoke steering wheel, and auxiliary gauges mounted beneath the dash, all contributing to a classic driver-oriented environment with subtle upgrades for usability.
A long-cared-for example that benefits from thoughtful upgrades that enhance performance while retaining its recognizable factory character, this GTO Convertible is accompanied by build documentation, a copy of its build sheet, and restoration receipts, representing a well-sorted and thoroughly developed interpretation of Pontiac's iconic muscle car.
